Intro: C# G# F#
F#
I wake up every morning
I hear your feet on the stairs
C# C#7
Youre in the next apartment
G#
I hear you singing over there
C# G# F#
This groove is out of fashion
These beats are 20 years old
C# C#7
I saw you lend a hand to
G#
The ones out standing in the cold
C# G# F#
Strange Overtones in the music you are playing
C#
Ill harmonise
C#7
It is strong and you are tough
G#
But a heart is not enough
C# G# F#
Put on your socks and mittens
Its getting colder tonight
C# C#7
A snowball in my kitchen
G#
I watched it melt before my eyes
C# G# F#
Your song still needs a Chorus
I know youll figure it out
C# C#7
The rising of the verses
G#
A change of key will let you out
C# G# F#
Strange overtones though theyre slightly out of fashion
C#
Ill harmonise
C#7
I see the music in your face
G#
That your words cannot explain
C# G# F#
Strange Overtones in the music you are playing
C#
Were not alone
C#7
It is strong and you are tough
G#
But a heart is not enough
